  y work for Signio (formerly PaymentNet) was conducted in three phases, including a brochure site, several web applications, and a set of enhancements to the brochure site following its initial launch.Timed to coincide with the company's new corporate brand/identity, Signio's website was designed to reintroduce the company to the marketplace and Signio's customer base. To turn the site around quickly, content was repurposed from other sources and the site built in stages. So while the site initially consisted of only a few dozen key pages, it quickly grew to double or triple that size through a number of additions and enhancements. The site's navigation was specifically designed with this added flexibility in mind. One such addition to the site was a 'virtual tour' introducing merchants to Signio's various payment processing services and online applications. The ten-page tour appears in a floating browser window and was optimized to load quickly on slow connections, without sacrificing the visuals and messaging deemed necessary to engage new customers. In April 2000 VeriSign aquired Signio, at which point its website and web applications were redesigned to reflect the new company's corporate identity.  |
